Re: Panasonic DFD

DFD is a gimmick that delivers very poor results. For stills you will be lucky if 75-80% of your shots will be in focus. If you are serious about video, you will be focusing manually anyway. No matter what you pay, all video systems hunt on AF. This is true even for 6-figure video gear.

Switch from Olympus to Panasonic for AF and you will regret it. True that Panasonic is superior for serious video. Serious means manual focusing, post processing with high end software, shooting on a tripod...
